What you can get
123inkjets has all your ink needs on one site, you can get laser, inkjet and toner inks there. As well as photo paper, cd's, dvd,s and printer cables all at well below brick and mortar stores. All their stuff is top quality and I have never had any problems with a cartridge I have gotten from them. Don't know your cartridge number? No problem they have a handy search feature where all you need is your printer model # and simply answer the questions in the handy drop down menu.
My Epson cartridges run about $18 for black and $24 for color each around here where I live. I can get them from 123inkjets for $6.45 for black and color, sometimes they run a special and your savings will be even greater. Buy 3 or more and your savings increase. They offer both oem and re-manufactured cartridges for most printers. Need printer paper or a cable they sell them as well and at a discounted price from your local store. Buy more than $55 in supplies and shipping is FREE, thats right FREE!!!
I usually order 3 sets of cartridges at a time and always do so when they are running a special. Right now they have an additional 5% off every order, sometimes it is more or shipping is free on all orders. They have different specials at different times of the year. Whenever I have placed an order I will have it in my hand in 5-10 days tops and that is important when you are running low on ink.
Remember on most printers you will use 2 black for every set of color cartridges on a color printer. That is the general rule of thumb and on my printer that is just about right, I usually have just a little left in the 2nd black cartridge once my color ones are empty.
The Quality and Quantity
I have been using a color printer for about 10 years now, I bought my first color printer from Epson in January of 1998. I used to use only oem cartridges as I printed a lot of pictures for my courses in college. A classmate told me about 123injets and I gave them a try. Using the same paper and printer I was able to compare cartridges with good results. I could not tell the difference in quality of the prints from the different inks. There is a slight difference in how long they last, but the price more than makes up for that.
If I was to put the difference in a number I would say the re-manufactured cartridges from 123inkjets is about 5% less than an oem cartridge. That is printing full color photographs too as they tend to use a lot of ink. When I was printing only papers 95% black only, there was no difference in quantity between the oem and re-manufactured ones from 123inkjets.
Bottom Line
I have had two different Epson printers in the last 10 years and I have used 123injets cartridges in both of them. Neither printer suffered any damage from using re-manufactured cartridges (the manufacturer will tell you different) and the print quality and quantity was comparable to oem brands. In 10 years I have probably saved in excess of $1,000 by using generic cartridges or re-manufactured ones. Thats a huge savings and I didn't sacrifice quality or quantity by doing so.
Next time you need ink give 123 inkjets a try, I do believe you will continue to use them on subsequent purchases, Plus you will save a lot of money that you can use on something you want instead of filling the pockets of the big name companies!
